[Ghdl-discuss] Ghdl compilation (yet)

[Richard Maciel]

I tested the compilation of the 0.20 version of ghdl is some machines (other than mine) and  I found one thing: None of them compiled at all. Some had problems with the compiler path, others with the ada compiler and others even with the gcc compiler. I found even problems with c headers not being found (stddef.h). What I would like to know is: are you experiencing similar problems or am I alone on the bug pit :-( ?
Below there is a list of the errors I found:

* makefile of the ghdl (0.20) - path to the stage1/xgcc and stage2/xgcc not correct
* ../../../gcc-4.0.2/gcc/vhdl/grt/config/linux.c:20: /usr/include/bits/types.h:31:20: error: stddef.h: No such file or directory
* source of the ada compiler library altered (???), needs recompiling (which, does not work at all!)

Tristam, to correct the first problem, I just created a symbolic link inside the vhdl directory of the objdir (gcc compilation directory) to those compilers. So, updating the makefile of the ghdl properly can solve that problem.
